Random Photos of May-June 2011:
Here are some pictures of Ora and Quad's highlights of the season so far.
Being a parent has taught me more about myself than anything else. It has increased my patience and love. I know what bothers me as well as what brings me the greatest joy. I have had to search myself to discover what is truly important to me. And in doing so I have found that my husband and daughter are what matters. Before Quad's Arrival Oca took us for a treat after we have done some grocery shopping.

It is a proven fact that when you serve someone you grow to love them. Having a child means that you experience more love in your life. It also adds people to your world that love you. Your child won't always love you, because there are times when they will say they hate you. But those moments are greatly outweighed by a spontaneous hug and genuine "I love you."
I thank God for every remembrance of you!
April 21, Holy Thursday of the year 2011. God rendered me another most precious gift a woman could have. A gift we prayed to arrive safe and sound. All the woes and pains I had departed and the sense of bliss reinstated. I had seen my precious Quad for the first time.
Well, a day before my delivery I had 2 days asthma attack. Oscar called me the day before to check me out if I’m okay. I told him not to worry and that all is well at home. On his second call afternoon of 3, he went home and ask for an early out and took me to the hospital. I find trouble in my breathing and that the medicine I take hasn’t made any result at all. I was checked by an on deck Obstetrician and found that I was 5 cm dilated. I told her I’m okay and that I'm not feeling pain anyway except for my hard breathings. But circumstances knocked me down only to find out that I’m set to give birth anytime of the day. I was alleviated for 24 hours for my pulmo , had antibiotics and I was set for a painless delivery after. I had such distress on the procedure. Several injections on my backbone and a tube inside was slotted in. 9cm-1cm I’m ready to push! Quad’s head showed but doctors found out he had dropped his heart’s beat from 150 bpm down to 50’s. I couldn’t breathe and could no longer push the baby. I had an emergency caesarian operation to prevent oxygen from being cut off. A cord prolapse happened that Quad’s heart rate dropped. Labor became so stressful for him. Upon knowing of what happened, my tatay was brought to a doctor for weariness. He was unable to breathe and was worried of what I was experiencing at that moment. I woke up with tubes on my back and in my abdomen. I was attended by 4 doctors and there were 3 tubes that measures for about 3 inches entrenched on my abdomen. Huge tanks of oxygens were used plus the hourly nebulizer routine for my recovery. But with God’s grace and providence, with prayers and with the love of the people surrounding us, we made it and we survive! And indeed everything’s possible when everything isn’t okay.
On the 5th day of my stay at San Pedro Hospital, I had Quad beside me finally! He was amazingly hushed. Sleeping the whole day and would only cry if he poo. Truly, relationship grows much stronger when you both have nothing but faith. Our stay at the hospital was a bittersweet memory we would never forget. But I was glad I had Oscar with me who never left me on what I was getting into. He was responsible enough to keep everything calm and in place, financially, emotionally. (Well, we had a huge hospital bill anyway). Friends? I would never trade them for making my life wonderful! I am lucky to have my Meno Gaia Co. Ltd. Family. Me and my family is so much thankful for surrounding me with good people with good vibes (ahhh ha!! Thanx for the donations guyz! Didn’t expect it!).

All is well and ends well. Finally we were home and I’m enjoying all the works and Quad’s cries. But to think that everything was over, Ora has been hospitalized for 4 days after our discharge from the hospital. She was diagnosed of having diarrhea and I was so worried. But with God’s blessings, she went home okay.
I watched all the chances God has given me. My heart kept singing for my sunshine’s to be okay!

Has ever measured,
How much the heart can hold.” –Zelda Fitzgerald
